## Resource

Send us Fan Mail Sanne Mestrom’s sculptural practice explores the politics of the body and the shifting nature of value in the art world. Drawing on the female form, her work questions how art history and culture assign meaning and worth—values that are never fixed, but constantly evolving. By taking these ideas out of the gallery and into public space, Mestrom uses play and participation to challenge how we experience art and urban environments. Her large-scale, playable sculptures invite hands-on engagement, blurring the line between art and everyday life while activating public spaces intellectually, physically, and imaginatively across generations. Thanks Sanne, it was a pleasure to talk to you. Sanné Mestrom Represented by Sullivan + Strumpf , Sydney Lectures at Sydney College of the Arts , University of Sydney Australian Research Council Fellow ART/PLAY/RISK Hosted on Acast.
